The pine tree is located on the left side of the Strenču-Valka highway, about a kilometer beyond the border of Strenču, 140 meters from the highway, in the forest, 400 meters NW from Kauči.

A piece was torn from the rough bark of the tree and the words of the song were carved into the trunk with a knife in old Latvian print, which are now partially legible – ˝ …c smyltā / …ten tħli cīn… / … návīgo as… / …ņa wems a… / …dz katuli / … strādniek… ˝ ("Come, beloved girl, until the fight, take the deadly blade in your hand. We are workers who have suffered a lot.").

Researchers have expressed the version that this poem could have been engraved in the pine trunk between 1905 and 1918, when Latvia was overrun by the revolution and the First World War, state forest specialists of Latvia know how to tell.
